Hi James.
I think that we have the same passion. I photographed a reenactment of the Battle of Cedar Creek in October in Middletown, VA. I think that I recognize some of the participants in your photos. Nice job, by the way. We shoot with the same camera as well. Or at least one of them - the D700. Check out my photos at: http://www.pbase.com/mnoble/cedar_creek

I wish I had know about this event. I would have been there!

Nice work. V

Mike
